FormscanBy Mark Nunan - FUTURUM REGEM ran well when runner-up to William Of Wykeham at Ballinrobe and the winner has subsequently enhanced that form in handicaps. The selection has a nice bit of experience which he can make good use of under his very capable 7lbs claimer. L’un Deux Trois was a fair fourth on hurdling debut at Limerick and then went close on the Flat last time. He’s open to more improvement in this discipline. Fierami wasn’t beaten all that far at Cork last time and is another to consider, along with point-to-point winner Clondaw Hollow who should come on from his run at Galway. Given his rating, Arakan Quest can’t be discounted but he’s been off since January.
